Answer:

D (The last answer)

Explanation:

In a transverse wave, particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

In a longitudinal wave, the oscillations of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation.

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Transverse waves are usually defined as those wave in which the particles within the medium vibrates perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation direction. These are comprised of crest and trough and also comprises the other properties of a wave such as amplitude, wave speed, wavelength, time period and frequency. For example, X rays, lightwave, and microwaves.

On the other hand, longitudinal waves are defined as those waves in which the particles present in the medium vibrate parallel to the wave propagation direction. For example, sound waves.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Predict the initial and isolated products for the reaction. The starting material is a 6 carbon chain where there is a triple bo
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

This reaction is known as mercuric ion catalyzed hydration of alkynes.

The first step in the reaction is attack of the mercuric ion on the carbon-carbon triple bond, a bridged intermediate is formed. This bridged intermediate is attacked by water molecule to give an organomercury enol. This undergoes keto-enol tautomerism, proton transfer to the keto group yields an oxonium ion, loss of the mercuric ion now gives equilibrium keto and enol forms of the compound. The keto form is favoured over the enol form.

Calculate the pressure (in kpa) of 1.5 mole of helium gas at 354 k when it occupies a volume of 16.5l.
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

267.57 kPa

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = n RT        R = 8.314462    L-kPa/K-mol

P (16.5) = 1.5 (8.314462)(354)       P = 267.57 kPa

What determines the volume of a gas?
Fittoniya [83]
Gases, unlike solids and liquids, have neither fixed volume nor shape. They are molded entirely by the container in which they are held.

If a pharmacist adds 10 ml of purified water to 30 ml of a solution having a specific gravity of 1.30, calculate the specific gr
xxMikexx [17]

The specific gravity of a sample is the ratio of the density of the sample with respect to one standard sample. The standard sample used in specific gravity calculation is water whose density is 1 g/mL. The solution having specific gravity 1.30 is the density of the sample that is 1.30 g/mL. Thus the weight of the 30 mL sample is (30×1.30) = 39 g.

Now the mass of the 10 mL of water is 10 g as density of water is 10 g/mL. Thus after addition the total mass of the solution is (39 + 10) = 49g and the volume is (30 + 10) = 40 mL. Thus the density of the mixture will be \frac{49}{40}=1.225 g/mL. Thus the specific gravity of the mixed sample will be 1.225 g/mL.
